Things are working well for me. All hyperlinks work -- and keep working even
after quitting the application.

I wish I was having the same success. But my hyperlinks are forgotten
the second I close Powerpoint. What are you guys able to hyperlink
successfully? I am just trying to put in shortcut actions buttons to
link between different slides in the same presentation. I keeps them as
long as powerpoint is open...but loses them as soons a powerpoint
closes. Any thoughts?

I found that slide presentations I had created before "the troubles" were
cured by Microsoft's Office 11.3 update. Presentations I had created (or
updated) during "the troubles" needed to be re-linked. All of them now work
perfectly -- as they well should.

Well this is indeed a mystery:

If I create a new presentation with hyperlinks, then those links are
saved.

However, it will not save the links in my existing slide shows. Even if
I copy all the existing slides into a new presentation...it will save
links on any new slide I create...but will not save them on the copied
slides (even if  I insert new action buttons).

Suggestions??

Hi Matt,

How was this resolved?

I have been holding off updating past 11.2.3 until I know this bug was fixed.

Thanks,
Bill
